Supplemental Chromebook Insurance
SFHS has a long-standing supplemental Chromebook insurance
partnership with Securranty. For $34.95 a year, Securranty will
provide coverage for chargers, device malfunction, accidental
damage, loss, theft, and standard perils. They also allow
unlimited claims per year. We strongly recommend all students,
especially those in the Class of 2025 whose manufacturer’s
warranty has expired, purchase insurance by August 31, 2024.
Insurance must be purchased annually for policies to remain
current. To purchase insurance, click here.
